Oh man the relatability here.
I'm really bothered by the fact that the shirt underneath is stitched to the vest.View attachment 112407
I know paying for the licensing for the actual bands on the patches isn't worth it for a Halloween costume maker who likely only will get one year out of the design, but I have to laugh at some of the "free use" versions they used. My favorite is the "W.A.S.P." patch was replaced by a lookalike "WINGS" patch, because I just don't see Eddie being a huge fan of Paul McCartney's band, Wings, and this was before the NBC sitcom of the same name.

For the Motorhead patch, their knock-off says "Dexterity", perplexingly

"Eddie" Iron Maiden and Megadeth vs...cartoon lion and "MegametaL" is actually one I don't mind, and think it's pretty clever (for a kid's costume)...thought he lion could have used a bit more detail.

But what does bother me, is how they completely gave up on the back, arguably the most important part of a "battle vest", and probably the first piece that'd get added to someone's in-progress vest.
